this is really government is perhaps less solid and previous israeli governments. i do think there is something that contributes to the solidity of the relationship when the two leaders look at each other as reelected by their own politics. ironically, both men come to the summit with a much heavier emphasis on the need to address the internal politics in their own countries. for the president, he is coming back to deal with the end of government. that is supposed to happen in a few days. netanyahu's is at least as much about domestic issues as everything we have just spoken about. a lot but those items on the table. there is a lot more to talk about in terms of jordan, and the very important message the president is sending by going -- his first trip to the arab countries since the series of uprisings. he picked a monarchy, and what message this sends elsewhere in the region is powerful. let me turn now to your questions and comments. please be kind enough to address your question to one of our participants so that all three don't have to answer every question. th
